Don your wings & feathers for this whimsical animal menagerie wedding (with a unicorn first look!)

Don your wings & feathers for this whimsical animal menagerie wedding (with a unicorn first look!)

Amie and Michelle’s original plan was to elope in a daffodil field, but instead they opted for a relaxed ceremony in the heart of Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood where personality and expressiveness outweighed decor and tradition. Capitol Hill has a lot of pride around its rich LGBTQ culture and history, so it just made sense for them. The ceremony and reception itself took place at Sole Repair, which is a stunning window-lit urban venue and fit their aesthetic perfectly. Just wait until you see the surprise unicorn first look!
